The much-anticipated ChampionChip Games series has been going strong at 888poker, making for an exciting week. Competitors from all around the world have been showing off their abilities and will in several activities. Among the most notable events of the week was the $109 Mystery Bounty Main Event, which was won by the Georgian player “Orion618“, who took home $6,936 (including rewards).
Impressive Achievements and Huge Victories
With an astounding 812 players, the Mystery Bounty Main Event prize pool skyrocketed to $81,200—far beyond the original guarantee. With the guarantee increased to a mind-boggling $100,000, this upcoming weekend will surely be an even more exciting tournament.
One of the most exciting parts of the event was the ten mystery bounties, the biggest of which was an astounding $8,000 and valued four digits each. The Romanian player “Hxs87,” who placed 38th overall, took home this substantial reward. Despite only receiving $127 in the main prize pool, “Hxs87” managed to rack up an incredible $8,627 in wins because of the hefty bounty reward.
Notable Bounty Winners
The names “schneido2307,” who came in 128th, and “warrior,” who got 36th, are also worth mentioning. Both players won $3,200 in bounties, which made their early withdrawals from the game much more profitable than they thought.
